No matter what seems to happen to Bret Michaels, you can’t seem to hold him down. But that may not be a good thing for the long-haired blond bandana-wearer.
Most recently the rocker defended his decision to forge forward and attend the live season finale of “Celebrity Apprentice” Sunday night, despite the fact that he’s suffered a brain hemorrhage, a stroke and learned he has a hole in his heart in recent weeks.
I wonder how wise his choice is to go ahead with “Celebrity Apprentice” so soon after the near-deadly brain injury he suffered not so long ago. http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20387520,00.html
Michaels’ spokeswoman posted a message on his website Friday seemingly to address fears that he is being too reckless with his health and should be resting and taking it easy, not flying to the Big Apple to do Donald Trump’s show.
“Bret is a very passionate person and refuses to live his life curled up in a ball wondering if or when something else might happen,” the Poison frontman’s spokesperson Janna Elias said in Friday’s statement.

Maybe he shouldn’t roll into a ball, but I think he should take it a little easier.
Last week Michaels, a lifelong diabetic, was briefly hospitalized for a small stroke, which came in the aftermath of a brain hemorrhage that nearly killed him and left him in an ICU for more than a week. During his most recent hospital stay, tests also discovered that Michaels has a hole in his heart.
“No doubt these recent medical complications have been tough but he wants to continue to live his life, enjoy every day and get back on the road,” Elias said.
Michaels is being closely watched by his physicians and is on blood thinners, according to his website.
